The Experience

Before You Go

Secure your valuables

Use a tight wrist or neck strap for cameras and phones—loose items aren’t allowed on lines and retrieval is difficult.

Wear closed-toe shoes

Sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes give grip on platforms and during the 20-minute jungle walk.

Hydrate before you go

Tropical humidity adds strain—drink water during the transfer and use the included bottled water between lines.

Listen to the safety briefing

Guides give specific clipping and braking instructions that vary by platform—follow them to avoid risky maneuvers.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Short Khao Phra Thaeo forest trails near the site for a quiet pre- or post-zipline walk
  • Local roadside stalls near the transfer points serving fresh coconut and grilled seafood

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaque (often seen near trail edges)
  • Various tropical birds including bulbuls and kingfishers

Conservation Note

The course emphasizes minimal tree drilling and anchored platforms to reduce canopy damage; visitors are encouraged to avoid feeding wildlife and to use designated trails.

The island’s interior contains remnant rainforest and limestone formations; many ecotourism projects here evolved from former plantation land over the last few decades.
